    This is my philosophy about true love:

    As first love is just a feeling, buterflies in your belly, need to see that special person, hug him, kiss him...
    But if it grows into reall and true love, than is not just a feeling, it's taking care, understanding, sacrificing, responcibilluty, being friend, mother, father, brother, whenever it needs to, letting that person be it self, helping him to grow, make him happy.

    This is the ultimate question about love that everyone has at some time in their life. And, in my opinion, it harnesses one of the most elusive answers in life.

    Love is not just a word shared between two people. Nor is it an Action or Look given from one to another.

    Love is a deep inner emotional feeling that stems from the thoughts one has towards the other person.

    Our thoughts are the creators of our emotions and ultimately the creator of our realities. Love is the one emotion that makes any one person feel their very best, deep within themselves.

    So, in my opinion, Love is purely a personal feeling that only that individual can understand and know. Thus, there is no certain way to understand and know "True Love," but to know it within yourself.

    To me, the words, actions, and looks an individual can give another individual can certainly be a defining clue towards what "True Love" is, but we must also understand that words, actions, and looks can also be deceiving. That's the rub. ;-)

    My opinion, coming from my wife and I being together for 5years, is that the way to understand "True Love" with someone is to First, be in love with yourself completely and utterly, and Second, to love that other person completely and utterly. Then, and only then, can you truly appreciate and understand the True Love of yourself and others.

    Hope this is a good answer for ya. ;-)

    For me True love is the desire for and absolute acceptance of another person the way they are, not the way you want or percieve them to be!

    yea, exactly man, how can you love someone who isn't themselves?
    same with expectations, that whole ridiculous game people play, power struggles
    me and my g/f saw this was why everyone was fucked up like when we were kids so never did it
    it works, we don't even know another happy couple and their world seems weird
    we dont get in fights b/c what the hell is there to fight about anyways?
    most couples it seems to different degrees just don't work, the tension is in the very air of their house lol

    peace man

    for us it was complete honnessty & acceptence & putting everything out there good bad & ugly saying well here it is all of us ..risking everything on every truth, but knowing all would be accepted & loved even more deeply
    you cant really have true love till you learn to love the flaws & all

    love can be the most interesting and terrible thing a person can feel. it can be the best feeling as well as the worse. as for true love, it depends on your feelings for it. i personally think that perhaps there is true love for each and every one of us, but is there one of this true love and if so, do you ever actually get to feel it? its all too complicated to say, but you may one day feel something and whether or not it is true love, is really up to you. there is no one sentence of what really is true love, but really what you make out of the whole ideal of that one person to spend the rest of your life with.

    True love IS love, there's no other kind of love.

    Wow, I could not agree with you more!
    I think that the idea of putting everything out there, having the relationship be completely raw, is the only way to have it really work out.

    For me, it's knowing endless forgiveness for him, even if you're not normally a forgiving person; it's being patient with him even if you're not normally patient; it's learning to deal with, and even adore, his flaws and quirks.

    It's wanting to wake up every day for the rest of your life beside him, lighting up when you see him even if you had a fight yesterday, and knowing that you two will work out even through the toughest obstacles. It's knowing that even if he stopped loving you, you would love him until the day you die. It's trusting him to do the right thing, and learning to compromise.
    In short, it's the greatest feeling in the world, with the most potential for suffering.

    To me, true love is when you get to the stage where you understand each other completely, each others flaws, weaknesses, strengths, insecurities etc and so are completly relaxed around one another and you feel like you can say anything to each other, you're kind of like...one. that is true love

    You're probably the most badass person I've seen on the interent. Even including your picture(Which I'm assuming is you, but if not it doesn't take away from your overall badassery.) My first expierence with a forum was a psp forum, so maybe I'm over reacting.

    It's funny I was going to make a thread about this very same topic. I don't think "love" is all that butterflies in your stomach bullshit...it's runs a little deeper than that. That's just infatuation.
    I think when you truly love someone, you are willing to do everything possible to make them feel as happy as you feel with them. You are willing to make sacrifices to be together, support them in every way possible, try your best to understand them, be very patient with them, try to always be a better person. You feel this overwhelming desire to share your life with them and fight against everything that comes in the way of your happiness.

    Well, that's what I feel for my love :)
